Seasonal Fundraising tips for sole fundraisers, anyone? 😍
If you want to hear about how to run a successful @BigGive Christmas Challenge or Easter campaign when it's just you or a small team, we have you covered in our virtual event - sign up here: https://t.co/ZawSipaNIR
We're now hearing from @PtGBusiness on choosing a #fundraisingCRM for your charity - a question that comes up a lot in our Facebook group! And we'll have Jenny from @donorfy giving a sample demo of their system #solefundraisers
Great tips shared from @RosieMilsom and John Parman in the Attracting New Donors on a Budget session - our takeaways are that it's good to have a hook to get potential donors through the door, and to look at the before, during and after of your approach #SoleFundraisers
So touching to hear from Nikki Bowdidge from @TBFcharity on how they used their personality and "naivety" as a #smallcharity to connect with Sainsbury's staff and raise the most amount ever from in-store charity visits
@darrenpike7 We also run regional monthly virtual networking sessions in a number of areas to hep sole fundraisers connect and chat more regularly. The Scottish one has been on break for a couple of months, but let us know if you need us to connect you with the group there for future events
#SoleFundraisers, today is your day!
Our conference is live and we've just had our first great session on developing a fundraising strategy. Thanks to Beth Nicholson from Citizens Advice South Warwickshire.
Who's watching today? Share your highlights!
@darrenpike7 However, it is useful to know where the gap in our offering has been, so this is something we can work on in future. There are discussion boards in the portal should you like to start something there yourself.
@darrenpike7 HI Darren, thank you for your feedback, and we are sorry to have disappointed you in this area. We are a group of volunteers who are sole fundraisers ourselves, so our time and capacity to host an event with all these facets covered are limited.
@CIOFSoleFR Anyone else getting ready to join the first Sole Fundraisers conference at 9.20am?
Got a fresh pad, pen, snacks and a cup of tea. #SoleFundraisers
Today is the day! After months of prep, I'm excited for our #solefundraisers conference today 🤩 We have some fab sessions and speakers, I hope attendees enjoy 😊 Speaking myself this afternoon on attracting new #donors 😬
Best of all, we've made the price accessible for sole fundraisers too!
Just £15 a ticket for CIoF members and £25 for non-members.
It takes place on Thu 4th Nov, 10am to 3pm
So let's make the most of this wonderful opportunity 😀
